INT. THE CUBE – MORNING
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zftr3OEG9
A knock rattles the door early in the morning.
A practically sprints to open it, his face lit up with an excitement usually reserved for cartoons and new snack deliveries.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMo3UVc81vC
He swings the door wide.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BlG4WNTgV
A (grinning)
"Good morning!!"
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjo2jmGBaia
Standing outside are Josh Anderson and Violet Solace, both carrying bags and looking very... surprised.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKnsdeZtBTv
Josh blinks, his optics doing a little mechanical whirr as he takes in the tall, smiley bot who is definitely not Jason.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsa6XrHzCMl
JOSH (awkwardly clearing his throat)
"Uh... hi? Is Jason here?"
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnJMTbbD3S9
Before A can respond, Jason skids into view, still pulling a hoodie over his head and looking like he lost a fight with his own bed.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lca1XrC26
JASON (huffing)
"Yeah, yeah, I’m here. Long story—roommates."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBd7OldNku
Josh raises a brow, but shrugs it off in classic Josh fashion—if it’s weird, it’s probably normal for Jason.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVc3gwz2eLL
Violet, on the other hand, immediately grins like a shark spotting blood.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEmTxIchaq
VIOLET (teasing)
"Roommates? What, you finally got sick of living with just your own depressing thoughts?"
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mzsshpe6h
Jason rolls his eyes.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVmkL7NfNc
JASON (grinning back)
"Yeah, figured I should diversify the mental illnesses around me."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqm5xH5YxB0
They both laugh like it’s the funniest thing ever.
Josh sighs, looking between them helplessly—clearly used to this dynamic.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLo6O9MTNi
Violet nudges Josh’s arm with an elbow.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtNz2Dw9Qx
VIOLET (smirking)
"Remember college? When I had to drag your sorry ass out of the laundry room 'cause someone glued your pants to the floor?"
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlipGo0vND
JASON (cackling)
"Best prank of the semester. You were screaming like a kettle."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ03ozXpmn5A
Josh mutters something about "trauma" and "therapy bills."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VGmSHvtuK
VIOLET (mocking, to Jason)
"And you were always the bad influence. Top of the food chain."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla2DPr4MCI
JASON (mock innocent)
"Hey, you were the one encouraging me! If I’m the poison, you're the damn delivery system."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAGGcxiK4q
They both exchange an evil, nostalgic look.
Josh just groans dramatically, as if he'd aged a century just standing there.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzyBrhmXl2
Meanwhile, A gently cradles Emily—a small, egg-shaped data pod with a soft pulsing blue glow—like she’s made of clouds.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGaadRW4eo
A (whispering, awed)
"She’s adorable."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS74yCQPhmk
Violet softens a little, watching A hold the pod with such care.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdALYU0E7lA
VIOLET (grinning)
"Take good care of her, alright? She likes soft humming noises and hates loud banging."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMymTTIixLd
Jason snorts.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCsflAzOM6
JASON (deadpan)
"Perfect. We’re a rock band of chaos and murder. What could go wrong?"
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWomPwlZdcD
Josh gives a nervous chuckle, handing A a tiny manual titled "Emergency Data Pod Care" written in about 500 words of technobabble and legal threats.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8Ck5f5mu1
JOSH (half-joking)
"If she explodes, you’re buying us a new kid."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpOH50yW21
JASON (saluting lazily)
"Sir, yes sir."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9JjFoT3A7R
VIOLET (turning to leave, calling over her shoulder)
"Don’t let him teach her sarcasm before she even has legs!"
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxICXuQhAS
JASON (mock-offended)
"Hey, sarcasm is a life skill!"
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWt5U1CRcqG
The front door clicks shut after them.
Silence falls over the cube... broken only by the soft pulsing of the data pod.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9dWiRkkG3
Jason turns slowly to face A and K, hands on hips.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCepiYPtGc
JASON (grimacing)
"Well, congratulations. We’re officially in charge of a tiny semi-sentient bean."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6yENvFBfs
A cradles Emily proudly like he’s holding the future.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSCJGfCLtn
K scribbles a doodle of a baby pod wielding a giant axe on the wall behind them.
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7o9DdLd75Q
JASON (sighing)
"This... is gonna be a nightmare."
92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pPHbUNHla
FADE OUT.
